If you already use MS Exchange 2003 now there is a possibility
to add SMS functionality to it with the help of
Ozeki NG SMS Gateway. With this solution you can further improve the
features of Exchange 2003.

You need the following components if you wish to connect your system to an SMS service
provider over the Internet:

Figure 1/a - Prerequisites for Ozeki NG SMS
Gateway IP SMS connection

In this case you need to find an SMS service
provider who can reach the mobile phones in your area. This SMS
service provider should be able to provide SMS service through
the Internet. To find such a provider, you can check our
website where we list some of them:
SMPP SMS Service providers.
Once you have found such a provider, you need to sign up for
their service to get the connection parameters. You can use these parameters
to configure your Ozeki NG SMS Gateway software.

Components for wireless (GSM modem) connection to the Mobile network

You need a GSM modem or GSM phone that you
can attach to your computer with a data cable if you wish to connect your system to the mobile
network wirelessly. In this case your Ozeki
NG SMS Gateway software will operate this phone and will send and receive
SMS messages wirelessly.

SMS messaging process in MS Exchange 2003

Ozeki NG SMS Gateway
continuously checks MS Exchange Server 2003 for new incoming email messages
with POP3 protocol. If it finds a new email message, it downloads and forwards the email
message as SMS text message to mobile phones. This is called email to SMS
forwarding.

In case of incoming SMS messages, the SMS gateway forwards it as
email message via the SMTP server of MS Exchange 2003. This is called SMS to
email forwarding. Figure 2 demonstrates this process. Ozeki NG SMS Gateway
forwards messages to the mobile network either with a GSM modem attached to the
computer with a data cable or it connects to the SMS center of the mobile
service provider over the Internet.

In the next window provide the IP address of the server then a
username you wish to use, and click on "Check Name" (Figure 19).

Figure 19 - Exchange server address and
username

If the data have been checked, the server's IP address will
turn into the server's full computer name, and the user's logon name will turn
into the full name of the user. These will be underlined (Figure 20).

For a better demonstration I create a profile for the other
user, Edward Taylor, on the client computer.

If it is done, close the "Control Panel" and to test the system I start
Microsoft Outlook in "Start" menu (Figure 21).
